Dalai Lama Successor Selection Process Under Scrutiny
China intends to determine the successor to the 90-year-old Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama's birthplace is located in Lumbini, Nepal. This location provides the Dalai Lama with legitimacy in Nepal, though global support for the Tibetan leader remains a factor. The Dalai Lama stated that his successor will be chosen from outside the Fin-world, specifically noting the successor will not be from China. This position has reportedly angered Chinese authorities. The Dalai Lama also intends to expand his influence in Nepal, according to the source. A human rights expert stated that everyone must be granted the right to have their asylum claim individually reviewed. This is not fitting in Nepal due to pressure from its large northern neighbor, whom the expert did not name.
